Sleepover with Alternative Ash

Delia stepped back as the two ten year old boys turned their bodies to admire the new nightsuits Delia had given them.

" There's!" She exclaimed as she stepped back. " Now you two looks like twins."

Ash and Alternative Ash looked at each other before letting out a laugh. Delia grinned and took the camera. " Smile!"

The two Ash's hugged one another while doing their victory poses, their Pikachu's on their shoulders.

Delia smiled as she looked at the photo. " This one's a keeper."

She looked up. " You two look so alike it's gonna be hard to tell you two apart!"

She headed to the phone. " I'd better call the professor!"

" Wait, mom, don't!* Ash exclaimed as a genius plan began to form in his mind. " Just tell him one of us is going to be there."

He turned to the Alternative Ash. " Hey, wanna play a prank?*

Alternative Ash's eyes widened. " A prank?" He repeated. " Isn't that considered rude?"

Ash shook his head. " Nah, it's all good fun."

Alt. Ash nodded slowly. " Okay..... Yeah, that sounds fun! Let's go!*

Ash waved. " Bye, mom! Bye Pikachu! We'll be back soon!"

" Ash!* Delia called. " Aren't you forgetting something?"

Ash looked down at his clothes. " Oops."

He turned to the Alt. Ash. " You may not believe it, but when I got Pikachu, I-"

" Overslept and ran to the professor's lab!* They both said at the same time.

" Wow. We really are twins." Ash commented.

Alt. Ash nodded. " We are."

Alt. Ash took a deep breath. " Ready?*

Ash nodded. " Remember the plan. You do Professor Oak. I do Gary. And remember, we have to lead them to the living room and as soon as we see one another we have to excuse ourselves."

Alt. Ash nodded, his heart thumping. " I sure hope it works!"

" It will!* Ash said brightly. " Now, go through the front. I'll go through the back. That's where Gary usually is."

They nodded, and separated ways.
